Posted by rifkihakim88 Wednesday, 7 January 2015 0 comments


Who doesn't know the grapes? This fruit is already known by the public for a long time. Although the price is relatively more expensive compared to other fruits such as apples, bananas, and others, but the grapes shown to have health benefits that can not be underestimated. Researchers reveal that the substance in grapes may protect the DNA, prevent heart disease, and cancer.

These substances called polyphenols, antioxidants that have been known to reduce the risk of heart disease and improve health. Other than that, polyphenols also claimed to prevent cancer, and preventing the aging process and help you lose weight.

Besides polyphenols, resveratrol found in grapes are known good for health. So far, researchers believe that the benefits of resveratrol have been exaggerated so many people have a reason to consume wine, made from grapes and contain resveratrol. However, researchers revealed that resveratrol can indeed help the body to protect the chromosomes and DNA.

However, consumption of wine just to just get resveratrol will not provide much benefit. Because consumption of wine can also be harmful to health if excessive. Because of this, researchers suggest to get resveratrol from the fruits other than grapes.

Some foods that contain resveratrol is cranberry, blueberry, and pomegranate. Red grapes are also known to contain a lot of resveratrol. So, if you want to protect your DNA from the cancer, don't hesitate to eat these fruits.

Vitamins are substances that are very important for health. Many people consume vitamin supplements to increase endurance and to get the nutrients they can't get from the daily food. However, some people refuse to consume vitamin supplements because they think can make them addicted. Is this correct?

Vitamin supplementation is not a substitute for food, because in fact no one can replace the nutrients from whole foods. According to Roberta Anding, MS, RD from the American Dietetic Association. Vitamins can fill nutritional gaps in your menu, but there is still a major force on your plate and not the pill. 

Therefore, if the nutrients are not being met through your foods, vitamin supplementation can help the malnourished. Some studies have shown the effectiveness of supplementation of vitamins for the body. For example: A National Institutes of Health (NIH) found an increase in bone density in older women who take calcium and vitamin D addition.

If you stop taking vitamins and feel weak, it doesn't mean you are addicted to the supplement. What actually happened is you are not meet the nutritional needs so that you are not powered.

1. Consult with your doctor to find out if you really need extra vitamins a daily life.
2. Note the levels of vitamin supplements that you consume, some vitamins such as vitamin A, D, and E can give side effects when levels exceed the recommended dosage.
3. Always be careful if you want to consume vitamin supplements when you are in the care of certain drugs. Some types of vitamins can interfere with the function of drug action in the body.

In addition to eating a healthy-foods, multivitamins also needs to be taken to make the body fresh. Especially if every day you undergo strenuous activity and dense, making it impossible to exercise regularly.
